Why is Swiss German changing? And could the different Swiss dialects actually be becoming more similar?

In this episode, I take a closer look at the great dialect shift happening in Switzerland. We’ll explore dialect leveling, the influence of mobility and social media, and some fascinating changes in everyday Swiss German. We’ll also look at why Standard German and English are increasingly influencing the way young people speak.

"When will I finally belong?"

Many expats in Switzerland ask themselves this question. In this episode, I share why acceptance in Switzerland often looks very different than people expect, the subtle signs that show you're already being welcomed, and why true integration is usually a slow process rather than one big moment.
